Hap. Xalapa, Mexico; Galeotti. 
This appears to be a large growing plant, with deeply angu- 
lar almost winged stems and branches: leaves 5—6 inches long, 
Pennineryed as Schlechtendal accurately describes them, and 
subtriplinerved. The flowers are in copious corymbose pani- 
cles, 45 inches long, hexandrous}; the calyx, truncate and 
nearly entire, is included at the base within a cup-shaped invo- 
lucre, resembling an outer calyx. 
I am indebted to Wm. Harris, Esq. of Kingsbury, for the 
Possession of this and many other fine Mexican plants.
